A Trick in rifle shooting,

Buffalo Courier: "No sir, l do not
claim to be an expert at fancy shooting
said Capt. Jack Crawford, in answer to
the A%rounder's inquiry. s'There is too
much trickeTy "a sort of sleight-of-hand
business connected with ii. I do pretend
to be o crack shot, and to excel in ae-
cnraoy and rapidity with a Winchester
rifle. The Winchester Arms Company
have offered repeatedly to back me for
$4,000 { gainst any man in tho world in
that sort OF Bkill. ! have fred twelve
shots IN three and o half seconds. But
here, let me e%niighteen you as to one of
the meat little tricks used IN fancy shots"
Here the scout produced what appeared
to be as he held it at q distance q brass
shell tipped With leaden ball. "Looks
like o bullet, don't it he said with q
laugh. SWELL it Isn't. Is is simply q
paper-mache protuberance appropriately
coioied to look like lead. Now I'll show
you what's bshlnd it. Picking open the
end he disclosed to view o quantity of
shot-ahout 200 he said were in the shell
With juet enough powder at the butt to
do the work. How are these used 2
You have probably witnessed the feat
OF cracking glaes balls thrown in the air
by shooting nt them with q Winchester,
and while riding q horse going at a
gallop. Well. that's the kind OF q bali
cartridge that is used and the spectators
look on with wonder and admiration
supposing that it is done with q single
ball, and that is something, my boy. that
no man in the world has eYer done or
will do. because il is a phyaleal impos.i-
| bility."

Denver Republican: Doc Hoilsdsy
is dead Few men have been better
known TO a certain class of sporting peo-
pie, and few men Of his character had
more friends or stronger champions. He
represented a class OF men who are fast
disappearing in the new west. He had
the reputation of being o bunco man,
desperate, and bad man generally, yet
he was a very mild-maunered man, was
genial and companio1able, and had many
excellent qualities. In Arizona he was
associated with the Wyatt carp gang.
These men were officers of the law, and
were opposed TO the trustlersp or cattle
thieves. Holiday killed several men
during his life in Arizona. and his body
was full OF wounds received in bloody
encounters. His history WAS an inter
|esfing one He was sometimes in the
right, bnt quite often in the wrong prob
ably. in his various escapades.
The Doctor had only one deadly en-.
counter in Colorado. This was in Lead,
willie. He was we'll known in Denver,
and had lived here q good deal in the
past few years. He had strong friends
in some old-sime detective officers and
in certain representatives OF the sport
ing element. He was e rather good
looking man, aud his GOODNESS ard
courage, his sffable ways Hnd fund oil
interesting experiences, won him many
admirers. He was q strong friend, a
cool and determined enemy, and q man
OF quite strong character. He has been
well known TO all the states and terri.
tories west OF Kentucky, his old home.
His death took place at G!enwood
Springs Tuesday morning.

Hrmors OF Retrenchment.

s
Louisville Courier Journal: Every
now and then some funny things occur
in the attempt at reform and retrench-
ment in the departments. A notice ap-
pesred in q paper that henceforth clerks
in the war department. were either TO
have their OWE towels washed ut their
own expense or go with dirty hands.
The washing had been paid for out OF a
fund for necessities, and q clerk who had
charge of the accounts decided that
clean towels did not come under that
head. and therefore there WAS no appro-
priation to pay for the washing OF towela,
A match to this occurred some time ago
when there was found among the ac-
counts OF an officer which were forward
for audit $40 for postage stamps.
This last Item was disallowed for said
the dogberry who wrote to the officer,
1.-THE law requires that an offer for bids
shonid be made for all supplies and the
contract given to the lowest bidder
In reply the following answer was sent:
"As counterfelters are the only. COMPETE
tors with the government for furnishing
postage stamps, I thought it best not
to open bids with them"
Another case: Con. Poe is stationed
at Detroit. In a violent gale he raw q
governments vessel wrecked with all
aboard. He quickly chartered q tug and
sent it to rescue the men. When he
sent the bill to Washington to pay for
the erylo OF the tug, the account was
returned al. disaliowed, owing to the
fact that 10 bids had been opened for
the furnishing OF a tug to rescue the
drowning ~seafnen." The dignity OF an
Office should be so iealonsiy guarded as
its honesty. No laws ara as good aa
those OF common sense. and hair split
things are neither wise nor desired.

The Brotherhood Of Telegraphers Propose
to Purchase Them for $4,000

NEW YORK, July 23.-It is stated that the
States has made proposition to purchase the
Baltimore & Ohio Telegraph Company. The
sum they offer is S., 900, 00O This is said to be
the exact amount offered by Mr.. Gould. The
Brotherhood offer to pay $500, 900 cash on tn.
acceptance of their proposition, and to
pay the remaining So. 500. 900 at the end of
six months. This large amount it is proposed
to raise by assessing each member Of the Broth
erhood fifty dollars per month for six months
among them entertain no doubt of their ability
to raise the sum required The proposition ia
one that is looked upon with favor by the men,
bers, and they express confidence that every
man among them would devote himself with
zeal to tho task OF raising the SO, 600 900 and
meet his assessmen. promptly. The assessments
paid by each member of the brotherhood would
make him a stocKholder in the company and
sharer IN the profits.
The negotiations for the purchase of the Balti-
more 81 Ohio have been conducted with tbs
greatest secrecy. Rumor has it that .he Knights
of Labor leading helping hand in the
transaction. A cooperative telegraph COM
pauy has long been under consideration by such
men as John Campbell, the leader of the tele-
graphers' strike in 1883, John B. Taltavall, edi-
tor of the Electric Age; Shaw, of St. Louis;
Morris. of Chichago, Buckley Quick and Thomas
O'Reilly of this CITY, and many other prominent
members of the profession. 1t is learned that
tie committee having charge of the details Of
the proposed purchase consists of Thomas
Edward Buckley. Another idea in connection
with it is to make membership in the brother
hood so desirable as to bring in the remaining

spectators. also falling into line and saut-

the review all the visitors were landed from the
troop-ships and sent ashore.
On Monday next all the vessels com prising the
squadron will put to to their several stations,
carrying instructions for making sham attacks
on various undefended portions of the British
coasts, order to test the efficacy OF tho English
land defensive arrangements.
The review was in every respect a great sue
cess. The Queens yacht steamed into the
s;olent at 3:12 p. NJ. Her Majesty stood on the
bridge and was visible to all. The yacht first
passed through the line of foreign ships, and
then proceeded up and down between the various
British squadrons. The royal yacht Osborne,
with the Prince and Princess of Wales on board,
followed the Queens yacht all tile way. The
detour occupied three hours, and there was
cessation of enthusiasm during the entire period.
